BRUSSELS, 29 April 2022, (TON): Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said “NATO is ready to maintain its support for Ukraine in the war against Russia for years, including help for Kyiv to shift from Soviet-era weapons to modern Western arms and systems.”
He spoke after the Kremlin warned “Western arms supplies to Ukraine, including heavy weapons, posed a threat to the security of the European continent and provoke instability.”
"We need to be prepared for the long term" Stoltenberg told a youth summit in Brussels.
"There is absolutely the possibility that this war will drag on and last for months and years."
The NATO chief said “West would continue to put maximum pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the invasion of Ukraine, which Moscow calls a special military operation, through sanctions and economic as well as military aid to Kyiv.”
